rockmeupto125 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I really like this bike, and would certainly own another one. But right now, I have my eye on another toy. 2003 Yamaha FJR1300 71,000 some miles and going up because I ride it often. Its nicely appointed with a Rick Maier seat, FZ1 mirrors, wind shields, hand guards, larger screen, moto lights, extra accessory plugs, color matched top box, highway pegs, and recently rebuilt Wilber adjustable rear shock. Plus a few other small extras. Its comfy, reliable, smooth and has loads of midrange torque. I was skeptical about only 5 gears instead of six, thinking it would scream at highway speeds. Never gave it a thought after the first couple of miles. Its an extremely good bike. Yamaha nailed it with this one. I should keep it, but as I said, I have my eye on another toy, and my heart still belongs to Honda even though I occasionally stray, bad boy that I am. Its not like mother Honda cares, or even notices. Butmy XX's have not really friended the outsiders..... $2900 located in Pennsylvania, which is short drive from almost the entire rest of the USA.

JJP XX Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I had one for 2.5 years. This bike is so worth it for the price! GLWS. With my FJR in Milwaukee, WI back in 2007... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockmeupto125 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 The bike is so stupid comfortable. And the adjustable screen makes a big difference. You can set it for just the right smount of wind depending on how you are sitting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
